You are correct, things we want to do as New Year resolutions do not need to wait until a new year begins, but it gives us a reason to procrastinate. It seems that most resolutions are not kept and end up being on the list for the following year. Maybe if we only had 1 or 2 resolutions per year, it would be easier to keep.
For my resolutions, I will also focus on my health (a recurring resolution, so I hope to finally get this one done). My only other resolution is to improve my Steem content. Improving my Steem content will involve more picture and video taking, so maybe I can take care of 2 resolutions at the same time.
